Seat wear after 3500 miles. What a shame

can u post a pic? ive read this on the forum a few times now, and a bit worried about mine as well.

Funny I cleaned my X and noticed that my seat on the left side where you get in and out is a bit worn.

Yup mine got like that on the driver's side, in the middle of the seat. I put a seat cover on to stop it. It was starting to look like an old sweater with fabric coming off everywhere...it really sucks for a car that's supposed to be 'rugged'. My 10 year old sentra's seats never did that!

good point, ive been just sitting on a tshirt, but that shouldnt be needed!

I'll take a pic tonight after work and post it up.

armandov99 is right, it looks like an old sweater when it gets all fuzzy. Between the seat and they way the plastics scratch so easily, I'm a little disappointed in Nissan. This is our third Nissan, and by far the worst in quality as far as interior goes.

Same here. Just took a little bit longer then most. I have mine wearing on the right hand side of the driver's seat. I need to check out if they made this into a recall. I think that I have seen something in the form of a TSB but not a recall. If not then we all need to go in and let the dealership know since they report everything straight to Nissan. Enough of us go there then they will hopefully make it a recall.

Here's the site to find it, wether it is a complaint, a defect, a safety recall, or a service bulletin, it's all here. There is some interesting info here, so check it out.

i wore shorts with velcro on the back pocket and it started to do that literally the first time i sat in the car, i noticed it a few days later

ive since put a towel on the seat bottom and it obviously stopped the problem.


seat covers on the way.. soon..

anyone having problems with the OR seats? if you are maybe i need to get a seat cover.

yeah OR people dont complain, just us poor SE and S folks

Excuse the question but what is the difference between OR seats and SE?

The "OR" fabric is really "Rugged" - I have no complains on wear.

For BG, go on the Nissan site - You'll see that the "OR" fabric has rubberized mesh woven into the fabric. Also Liquid repellent...

Nissan has replaced the covers for SE and S guys, so Id just go that free route when they wear, thats why we have the warranty Or go for the seatcovers, some really nice ones
